News: FWST: Bailey has a busy day

Dan Bailey hadn’t had this much fun since his days at Oklahoma State. The rookie placekicker was one of the busiest guys on the field Sunday, booting three field goals, five extra points and nine kickoffs.

“I was telling some of the guys, ‘Man, this reminds me of college,’" Bailey said. "Obviously when I’m kicking a lot, that usually means we’re doing good as a team. It was a fun day.”

Bailey connected on field goals of 45, 36 and 31 yards and has now made 22 in a row, which is third on the Cowboys’ all-time list. Bailey’s kicking coach, Chris Boniol, had 27 straight in 1996 and 26 straight in 1995.
